Does the MSI GE620-GE620DX-FX620DX-FX623 Take an NVMe SSD?
MSI GE620-GE620DX-FX620DX-FX623
Every one of 17 field reports observed SATA storage rather than NVMe.
That is useful evidence about the reported machines, but it does not prove that every configuration lacks an NVMe slot or that the installed SATA drive is 2.5-inch rather than SATA M.2. Check the service manual, connector, dimensions, and current drive before ordering.
Field reports can’t tell us whether the SATA drive is a 2.5-inch bay or a SATA M.2 slot, nor which M.2 length fits — check the service manual before you buy.
Reported by field data
- Storage controller:
- Intel Corporation 6 Series/C200 Series Chipset Family 6 port Mobile SATA AHCI Controller
- Platform:
- Intel Corporation 2nd Generation Core Processor Family DRAM Controller
- Drives seen:
- Hitachi HTS54755, TOSHIBA MK7559GS, WDC WD5000LPLX-7
Drives people actually had installed when they ran the report — not a compatibility list, and not the only drives that fit.
Capacities seen
- 500 GB (50%)
- 750 GB (20%)
- 120 GB (20%)
- 1 TB (10%)
Sizes found installed in field reports — not a ceiling. Larger drives work fine.
How we know
This answer is derived from 17 independent hardware reports for the MSI GE620-GE620DX-FX620DX-FX623, of which 0% observed an NVMe drive. We read the PCI device list in each report to tell NVMe apart from SATA.
